Bats first began crafting cricket bats in 1993 in Launceston, Tasmania
after Paul was invited to join the Tasmanian state squad. It was there
where he became good friends with Ricky Ponting, who later became a long
term user of Bradbury bats.

Both Paul and Sally are virtually
self-taught in the crafting of cricket bats. They use English willow and
mostly antique tools such as the block plane, draw knife and
spokeshave. Another unusual technique used to polish the bats, is a
horses shinbone.

After two years in Tasmania, the batmakers
returned to Fremantle, Western Australia and later expanded to a more
convenient workshop. It is at this time when the likes of Steve Waugh
and Shane Warne joined Ricky as regular customers.]]>false
